You sometimes find little gems in places you just don't expect! Looking for a late lunch after getting my Cook Islands drivers licence, we went past Kuku's and quickly turned around and had a look at the menu. Lots of burger style meals, but also a vegetarian option using local breadfruit, eggplant (aubergine) etc. and local salad vegetables. Washed down with REAL iced tea. They also do island fries (breadfruit chips) for a yummy alternative

Food was excellent, really nicely presented on a banana leaf (no washing up!) and we had a lovely chat with the freiendly owner (sorry - never did get your name!). Would definately revisit on a regular basis for a tasty and reasonably priced lunch.

“Best burgers on the island”

Reviewed October 23, 2012

KuKu's Takeaway in Ureia has the best burgers I have ever had. She puts chutney on the delicious buns and WOW was it ever good. In fact, I bought chutney at the marketplace so that I can try it at home. The owner is a real sweetheart, also.
